Benefits of technology

[0006]The inventions are related to a synthetic peptide designated BMP Binding Peptide (BBP) that avidly binds rhBMP-2. BBP increases the rate and degree to which rhBMP-2 induces bone formation. BBP alone induces calcification of chondrogenic, osteogenic and osteoblastic cells. Compositions and substrates including BBP, antibodies to BBP and methods of using BBP are useful in applications relating to bone.
[0010]This invention is advantageous at least in that BBP enhances calcification of chondrogenic or osteogenic precursor cells. Further, this invention is advantageous at least in that BBP enhances osteogenesis to occur faster to a greater extent, which may improve the clinical rate and effectiveness of treatment with BMP, and reduce doses and therefore the cost of treatment.

Problems solved by technology

However, the cost of using minimally effective dosages of BMP-7, for example has been a limiting factor in clinical use.

Extraction and Separation of Non-Collagenous Bone Proteins (NPCs)

[0073]Methods: NCPs were extracted from defatted, demineralized human cortical bone powder with 4 M GuHCl, 0.5 M CaCl2, 2 mM N-ethylmalemide, 0.1 mM benzamidine HCl, and 2 mM NaN3 for 18 hr at 6° C. Residual collagen and citrate-soluble NCPs were extracted by dialysis against 250 mM citrate, pH 3.1 for 24 hours at 6° C. The residue was pelleted by centrifugation (10,000×g at 6° C. for 30 min), defatted with 1:1 (v / v) chloroform: methanol for 24 hr at 23° C., collected by filtration and dried at 22° C. The material was resuspended in 4 M GuHCl, dialyzed against 4 M GuHCl, 0.2% (v / v) Triton X-100, 100 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.2 for 24 hr at 6° C., then dialyzed against water, and centrifuged at 10,000×g for 30 min at 6° C. The pellet was lyophilized and subsequently separated by hydroxyapatite chromatorgraphy.

In Vivo Activity of BBP

[0080]Methods: The osteogenic activity of material was tested using male Swiss-Weber mice aged 8 to 10 weeks were used (Taconic Farms, Germantown, N.Y.). Prior to the assay, the BBP was solubilized and lyophilized into 2 mg of atelocollagen. The dried material was placed in a #5 gelatin capsule and sterilized by exposure to chloroform vapor. To conduct the assay, mice were anesthetized using 1% isoflurane delivered in oxygen at 2 l / min through a small animal anesthesia machine (VetEquip, Pleasanton, Calif.). Animals were affixed to a surgery board and the fur over the hindquarters shaved. The skin was cleaned with 70% ethanol and a midline incision made over the spine adjacent to the hindquarters. Blunt dissection with scissors was used to expose the quadriceps muscle on one side. A small pouch was made in the muscle using the point of scissors and the #5 capsule containing the test material was inserted into the pouch. The skin was then closed with three 11 m...

Surface Plasmon Resonance to Determine the Interaction of BMP-2 and the Synthetic Peptide

[0091]Methods: The binding interaction between rhBMP-2 and BBP was characterized using surface plasmon resonance employing a Biacom X instrument (Biacore, Piscataway, N.J.). Buffers and chips for the procedure were obtained from Biacore. RhBMP-2 was dialyzed into 10 mM sodium acetate, pH 5.5 at a concentration of 1 mg / ml. This material was then attached to a CM-5 sensor chip using reagents and procedures supplied by the manufacturer. Running buffer was 10 mM HEPES, pH 7.4, 150 mM NaCl, 3 mM EDTA, 0.005% Surfactant P20. The peptide was dissolved in running buffer at concentrations ranging from 1×10−5 to 1×10−4 M. Flow rates from 5 to 50 μl / min and injection volumes of 20 to 100 μl were employed. The regeneration solution was 10 μM glycine-HCl, pH 2.0.

[0092]Results: Results of the surface plasmon resonance studies to determine the interaction between rhBMP-2 and BBP are shown in FIG. 9.

Abstract

A cyclized peptide designated BMP Binding Peptide (BBP) is a synthetic peptide that avidly binds rhBMP-2, as do endogenous forms of BBP, and sequence conservation between species results in a variety of useful BBP compositions. BBP increases the over-all osteogenic activity of rhBMP-2, increases the rate at which rhBMP-2 induces bone formation, and BBP induces calcification alone. Compositions and substrates including BBP, and methods of using BBP are useful in therapeutic, diagnostic and clinical applications requiring calcification and osteogenesis.

Description

PRIORITY CLAIM[0001]This application is a continuation-in-part of U.S. application Ser. No. 10 / 587,313, which was filed on Jul. 26, 2006, which is a national phase application of PCT Application No. PCT / US2005 / 002722, filed Jan. 28, 2005, which claims priority from U.S. Provisional Patent Application 60 / 539,903 filed Jan. 28, 2004.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]Growth factors are substances, including peptides, which affect the growth and differentiation of defined cell populations in vivo or in vitro. Normal bone formation occurs during development, bone remodeling occurs in adult life, and bone repair occurs in order to preserve the integrity of the skeleton. Bone formation, remodeling and repair involve bone resorption by osteoclasts and bone formation by osteoblasts. Cell differentiation and the activity of osteoblasts and osteoclasts are regulated by growth factors. Thus, any interference between the balance in cell differentiation and resorption can affect bone homeostasis, ...
